power will be determined by what boost pressure you run

at 27psi i'd say 360-370hp, but if live mapped at around 32 psi, should see circa 400

I run an rs500 with a similar set up but the head is ported and the turbo is obviously a T4. I get 437bhp at the rear wheels so you could well be looking at up to 400ish - sounds good
